That's still an odd concept to me. I've never seen a gas station where you didn't pump your own gas.

Here you go Zeke and Solomon. Another HPT "good to know" thread.

He's still stuck in 1960. I don't think there's a single full service station in the central Arkansas area.

thahemp · 08-25-2013, 12:15 PM

Probably tons of gas theft in NJ or something. Do you have to tip the pump workers? That would suck balls.

From Wiki:

Both states [OR and NJ] prohibited self service in the 1940s due to fears that foolish customers would handle gasoline improperly.

OK, I have found us a site that will give us plenty of ammo while dealing with, um, "the over educated, self important" individuals who seem to know everything.

http://kalecoauto.com/

They have all the classic like..

Blinker Fluid
$18.95
Are you blinkers sluggish? Do they make an annoying ticking noise? Do they not flash fast enough? Here's your solution. Little do people know, factory quality blinker fluid should be changed every 150,000 blinks. Our blinker fluid lasts ten times that. KaleCoAuto high quality synthetic blinker fluid meets the highest DOT standards while not being in the least bit DOT legal! KaleCoAuto blinker fluid provides you with thousands of hours of reliable blinking without the wear and tear on the flash-synchro's that the other blinker fluids cause. KaleCoAuto blinker fluid will not lose its viscosity even in the most extreme situations. Why buy that old dino-blinker fluid, when you can get our unique patented synthetic formula? Satisfaction guaranteed!! For use in any car.

or

YES, those are real Brass Balls. (No, I do not own them, YET!!)

Brass Balls
$35.95
Ever wonder where those high performance rally car drivers get their brass balls? For the first time ever, brass balls are being made available to the public! Sold in sets of three, Brass Balls are an easy way to increase your performance driving ability. (For off road race use only. Use on street may result in arrest, serious injury, or death.)

Muffler Bearing
$33.95
Do you have an annoying rattling in your mufflers? Are they sagging a little? Don't quite sound right? That could be the symptoms of a worn muffler bearing. Allow me to introduce the KaleCoAuto muffler bearing! It's unique iron-graphite composite with pre-grease-packed assembly provides over 200,000 miles of smooth muffler operation! It is most likely they will outlast your mufflers. Also works well on heavy duty exhaust systems. One per muffler.

Peruse at your leisure ladies and gentlemen and use at will, but cautiously.

Most gas stations I go to let me do my own gas. I always get out of my car and go around to the pump when I go to the gas station. Mainly because I'm used to having a locking cap with my Mustang so I always have to get out the car anyway. And besides, I like to make sure the correct gas is getting put in. Once they get it started I tell the guy that I'll take care of it when it finishes. And I've never had an attendant stop me. Usually they'll hang around and chat with me. As long as you're cool and it's a station you frequent they'll let you pump it yourself. They just have to start it off because the pumps are all code locked.

I think that's right.

Unfortunetly it is showing -67 vaccum. I also tried the equation
boost = (v*12.425) - 20.9125

That one showed -11 vaccum. Idle is -22 however.

Do we have any other guesses?

My afr ended up being (v*2)+10 so that was easy.

TBone · 08-25-2013, 07:40 PM

OH MAN.... what an afternoon. Traveled up north to a BBQ, about an hour away, and on the way back I got to play with an E46 M3, in a really cool blue, and a Porsche GT3. We, legally, diced in and out of traffic for a good 20 minutes till the M3 dropped out and the GT3 and I continued for another 15 minutes till he had to turn off.

MAN, I LOVE MY CAR!!!!!!
